Diogo Dalot took a throw-in on the right flank and found Christian Eriksen. The Danish midfielder curled a perfect cross to the back post for Rashford to attack.
The England forward jumped above West Ham defender Thilo Kehrer and headed the ball past Lukasz Fabianski. Rashford netted his 100th goal for United on his 317th appearance for the club.

West Ham were slightly better in the period after the break but did not create any clear-cut chances.
Man United were equal to the Hammers' crosses into the penalty area, with Diogo Dalot, in particular, making several interventions.
David Moyes' side ultimately lacked incision in the final third.
It was clear to see why the Scottish coach has such a poor record in games against the traditional top-six Premier League teams away from home.
Under Moyes, West Ham have yet to win an away game against Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal or Tottenham. They have taken just two points from 20 games in these fixtures.
Moyes, meanwhile, has yet to win away to Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea or Arsenal in 70 attempts as a manager. David de Dea ensured that the unwanted record was extended.
The Spanish goalkeeper saved Michail Antonio's shot from distance, before stopping Kurt Zouma's header. In stoppage time, Harry Maguire prevented Jarrod Bowen's effort from going in and De Gea produced a flying save to thwart Declan Rice.
Meanwhile, Ronaldo came the closest to extending the Red Devils' lead but shot wide with his left foot from eight yards out. Fred also hit the post with an effort.
Ten Hag's team survived a few scares but ultimately recorded another valuable victory.
